Hi,

Is it possible to set a Stop order on the chart- that if hit- would execute an order in the reverse direction as well- using the currently selected Attached Order logic?

E.g. Trade you enter goes against you- hitting your safety stop to close out the current trade- which then executes a trade in the opposite direction.

I could not find anything definitive on this subject.


Cheers

No, you need to enter another order, at the same level as the stop order.

Or you could use this order type:
Order Types: Triggered Limit

This way, you do not exactly enter the market at the point where the stop is triggered but wait for retrace before entering. This would probably make more sense.
